Pros: Many people here in the reviews complaint about the hostel’s location. I loved the location! It’s a little outside the noisy and touristy streets of the center but everything is walkable and there are some small and lovely shops and restaurants very nearby. Moreover, every detail at this hostel is made with love and the breakfast is really good!

Pros: We had a wonderful stay at this little hostel, and I would not hesitate to come back. Everything was just perfect: the delicious breakfast, the spotless clean room with a super comfortable bed, and the character of the place and communal areas. I must also mention staff - I can't thank them enough for all their help and care. A special thank you to Marty and Fatima for the warm welcome and support throughout our stay!

Pros: I liked the breakfast, the kitchen, the ambiance and the staff.
Cons: I really liked Azul Cielo. I had originally booked for 2 nights and was happy with rate for a room with bathroom. When I needed yo cancel one night, however it wouldn't let me rebook the same room so I had to book the most expensive room which was a suite which cost $20 more per night. That's why I didn't check high on "good value" above.

Pros: Everything basic
Cons: Super noisy night time because it’s located near lots of bars and downstairs has not enough tables and chairs. So I needed to skip breakfast. Every morning was packed. And staff are not friendly. Also a dormitory has 2 toilets but everytime one toilet doesn’t have a toilet paper.
6.3 Good
Pros: Location is the best. Decent breakfast. Nice rooftop.
Cons: The room was really hot and dark. The lady at the reception said she will bring an extra fan but never did. The ensuite bathroom has no door so all the humidity comes in the room. The shower is not very clean with lots of hair and old soaps hanging around. Even though the hostel was not full, they decided to squeeze all of us in one dorm. The staff is just Ok. They do the minimum and look jaded. I chose this hostel because of their rating. Not bad but really under expectations.

7.0 Good
Pros: Like the mattress.
Cons: Bed is cozy but shower head and curtain inside of dorm room is not good, you need to take off clothing outside first snd wear towel before enter shower room otherwise you will be totally wet. Toilet door locked and still can be easily open from outside.

Cons: Would not stay here again, had to book it last minute due to change in travel plans. No social element, just a place to sleep. The toilets were often in a terrible condition, that’s not necessarily the hostel’s fault as they were cleaned every day, but says something about the guests that stay here. No hot water I’m the showers.

5.0 Okay
Pros: Good Location Very busy intersection with buses and cars. Easy to fetch buses. Less noisy at night. Good Breakfast and GREAT coffee!
Cons: The Kitchen is NOT available to Guests at the Hostel. While there is a fine kitchen, the Gas for cooking is not permitted for use except by the staff who makes Breakfast in the morning. A Microwave is available between 7:30am and 4pm. Then the kitchen is closed. A very small refrigerator is available ( no freezer) and no shelves so only the floor of the refrigerator can be used. For a busy hostel this is not acceptable or efficient. They should NOT be permitted to advertise there is Kitchen accessible to Hostel Guests. Most rooms have only windows which open to the Interior Hallways so very little air flow in the dorm rooms.

Pros: Good location and nice roof terraces.
Cons: The bunk beds are a death trap. They sway and shake when you climb up. Breakfast was ok but the butter and milk tasted artificial. Also requested a shared taxi to the airport but they called me a private one instead doubling the price. Bit strange that where you brush teeth is where you eat breakfast.
2.0 Mediocre
Pros: The breakfast was good. Everything else horrible.
Cons: Horrible hostel. one staff member promised lower bunk as I'm recovering from surgery, other one later said it wasn't available. Top bunks incredibly unstable. Far from attractions, no pressure in showers, cold water only, bathrooms outdoors, cramped room, poor WiFi, very overpriced for what it is, 100 peso deposit for the sheets which you not only have to take yourself at the beginning (happens in some hostels) but also take back yourself at the end (first time ever). Horrible horrible customer service.

Pros: Location was great, next to a beautiful park and close to the bus station.
Cons: The dorm was the weirdest dorm I've stayed in (of 200+ hostels). It's dark, with no outside-facing windows, and was inhabited by two very old men (like, no judgment, but I'm used to hostels being full of backpackers / travelers, not a white-haired old man who went to bed at 8 p.m. and another guy who snored like my grandpa at decibels previously thought impossible). We ended up switching to a private room halfway through the night because we could not sleep, and when we went back up to get our stuff, another guy had moved into my bed, which was strange. And then they charged us for two nights, which was unfortunate. And the bathroom's water pressure definitely left something to be desired. And the breakfast was pretty paltry—white bread and Fruit Loops, with watery eggs and old tortillas.

Pros: It's an amazing location, a few minutes' walk from the busstation and right across an amazing park. It's a great location in the historic centre.
Cons: To my tastes, there wasn't a lot of atmosphere in the hostel. I found it to be a bit dark and heavy, literally. Not a lot of light in the reception area and heavy, bulky furniture. It's a functional hostel, but that's it. No extras. Granted, I arrived sick and stayed sick during my stay there so that might have influenced my perceptions, but I remain of the opinion that it didn't have a lot going for it in terms of atmosphere.

Pros: Me and my husband stayed in a private room. Before arriving I was very put off because of the number of bad reviews, but had to book this because it was last-minute and the only place left within our budget. I was so pleased to find it wasn't as bad as I was expecting, though I'm not sure what the dorms are like. In our room, the shower was hot, the sheets looked and smelled clean, though old in parts it was not really so 'dirty' as many have claimed... I never leave reviews, even if I like a place, but I thought I should be fair and give them a good review to balance all the bad ones. It's not that the room was wonderful or anything, but it was good enough for a couple of nights, it did the job, and for the price. I have OCD, and I've had to compromise quite a bit while travelling for four months because of our budget, but I felt ok in this room. Of course as everyone already says, the location is excellent. We easily got to Ethnobotanical Garden, Monte Albán, and Hierve el Agua. The staff was nice to let us cancel a booked night without making it an issue. The WiFi was perfectly fine in our room, not slow.

Pros: Beds were clean and comfortable. Rooms were cleaned regularly. Great location, just a few blocks away from Zócalo.
Cons: Toilets and showers are combined and only two for the whole hostel, leading to queues during 'peak hours' No kitchen - would have been useful for having your own breakfast at least. No hostel ambiance. Filter water was 3pesos a liter, whereas it's free in many other hostels. Just one charging point in each dorm room.
4.2 Okay

6.7 Good
Pros: Low price, affordable, location close to the market, BUT!!.

7.5 Good
Pros: Me and my husband stayed in a private room. Before arriving I was very put off because of the number of bad reviews, but had to book this because it was last-minute and the only place left within our budget. I was so pleased to find it wasn't as bad as I was expecting, though I'm not sure what the dorms are like. In our room, the shower was hot, the sheets looked and smelled clean, though old in parts it was not really so 'dirty' as many have claimed... I never leave reviews, even if I like a place, but I thought I should be fair and give them a good review to balance all the bad ones. It's not that the room was wonderful or anything, but it was good enough for a couple of nights, it did the job, and for the price. I have OCD, and I've had to compromise quite a bit while travelling for four months because of our budget, but I felt ok in this room. Of course as everyone already says, the location is excellent. We easily got to Ethnobotanical Garden, Monte Albán, and Hierve el Agua. The staff was nice to let us cancel a booked night without making it an issue. The WiFi was perfectly fine in our room, not slow.
Cons: Usually, almost all places we've stayed, we are given towels, which is not necessary but it does help, so two towels would have been good. Small mirror in the bathroom would be good, though there was a large mirror in the bedroom which is definitely better than nothing. Most of the glass window in the bathroom was opaque and therefore a curtain was not installed, but it would have been better to make the top part of the glass opaque too, as I didn't feel 100% comfortable taking a shower incase people on the street on balconies across the road could possibly see me, so I stayed ducked in the shower just in case.
8.3 Excellent
Pros: Very cheap and simple place to stay. Do not expect much. Staff doesnt speak English but is very friendly.
Cons: Well they could have toilet seats haha.
7.5 Good
